Inventory-first POS
Lightspeed Retail, Shopify POS, Clover Retail, or Square for Retail — picked on SKU count, matrix inventory (size/color), and whether you're running purchase orders.
Inventory in the back, traffic at the door, e-commerce in another tab — your counter is the place it all has to reconcile. The right system pulls it together so end-of-day adds up the first time.
If your POS doesn't talk to your inventory, you're counting twice and still selling things you don't have. The right scanner-to-receipt flow saves a person-hour a day in a busy shop.
Refund flows that don't cost you the interchange twice. Store credit that survives a swap of cashier. Tax handled correctly on partial returns.
Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce — your stock has to drop in real time when something ships, or you oversell on Saturday and disappoint someone Monday morning.
Sell a $1,800 sofa or $400 pair of boots? Buy-Now-Pay-Later (Affirm, Klarna, Afterpay) and surcharge programs change conversion at the high end. We pick the ones that actually fit your margin.
From a single boutique to a 6-location regional brand — picked on inventory complexity, e-commerce integration, and how the team actually runs the floor.

One source of truth for stock. Returns initiated online and finished in-store work cleanly. Gift cards usable on either channel.
Physical and e-gift cards branded for your shop. Lightweight loyalty (visit-based or spend-based) with no app to download.
Buy-Now-Pay-Later integrated at the terminal where it lifts your average ticket. Owner dashboards that compare locations side-by-side without exporting CSVs.
Our old POS couldn't handle online and in-store as one inventory. Raquel rebuilt the whole flow in a weekend, switched our processor, and our staff actually thanked us for it on Monday.
